Shen Qinglan took two steps forward and stood in front of Shen Qingzhu while explaining, "I really killed the prey!"
When Shen Qingzhu heard this, he was so moved that tears came out of his eyes. He even forgot who he was beaten up for.
Shen Qingju chased Shen Qingzhu all over the courtyard and was already panting from exhaustion.
Upon hearing Shen Qinglan's serious and sincere explanation, she was suddenly stunned.
She put down the broom and asked dubiously, "Did you really hunt the animals? What did you use?"
"A stone."
"Stone?"
Shen Qingju looked at her with an expression that said, "Are you kidding me?"
Shen Qingzhu poked her head out from behind Shen Qinglan and said, "Third Sister hit them with a stone. I saw it with my own eyes!"
"Shut up, your words aren't credible."
Shen Qingzhu felt wronged and thought to himself, "What?!" She didn't believe Third Sister's words either!
Shen Qingju glared at him before asking Shen Qinglan, "How did you hit them with a stone?"
Shen Qinglan thought for a moment, then picked up a stone the size of an adult's thumb from the ground and flicked it to the side.
With a smack, a hole was instantly pierced through the water tank at the side.
Shen Qinglan was silent for a moment before she said, "I didn't do it on purpose!"
She had only wanted to demonstrate how she could hunt with a rock and had forgotten that there was a water tank there.
Shen Qingju was speechless.
Shen Qingzhu was also speechless.
"Eldest Sister, do you believe me now?" Shen Qingzhu said with an aggrieved expression.
Shen Qingping clapped his hands and said, "Third Sister is really amazing. She even broke the water tank!"
Shen Qinglan was speechless.
She didn't expect that a casual flick of her finger would cause a hole in the water tank.
Shen Qinglan thought to herself, The quality of this water tank is so poor!
Shen Qingju sized Shen Qinglan up from head to toe. Ever since her third sister recovered from her illness, her personality had become very strange.
Usually, she would come and go silently.
Sometimes, she didn't even know when her third sister sat down or when she finished eating.
Now, even a casual flick of a small stone could pierce through the water tank. She did not know if this was a good or bad thing.
Shen Qingju coughed awkwardly and said, "Since Third Sister was the one who hunted them, Qingzhu, bring your little brother to the river to deal with the prey."
"Great, there's finally meat to eat!"
The seven-year-old Shen Qingping stared at the furry prey in his brother's hands, his eyes sparkling.
After Shen Qingzhu left with Shen Qingping, Shen Qingju looked at Shen Qinglan and asked, "Third Sister, where did you learn your skills?"
"I don't know," Shen Qinglan shook her head as she said. "I just had them after I woke up."
She couldn't possibly tell Shen Qingju that she had learned it in her previous life, right?
Shen Qing Ju hesitated before saying, "So, it's innate?"
"That's possible," Shen Qinglan replied.
Shen Qingju said, " Alright, it's good to have such skills. I see that you like to eat meat. With such skills, you won't lack meat to eat."
Shen Qinglan was speechless.
Shen Qinglan woke up too early today. After she came back from the mountain, she felt sleepy again.
Shen Qingju saw that she kept yawning and quickly said, "Wash yourself first before going back to the house to rest for a while. Wait for Qingzhu and Little Brother to bring the meat back after they're done processing it. I'll wake you up to eat after I'm done cooking it."
Shen Qinglan shook her head when she heard that. After eating Shen Qingju's cooking for so many days, she had almost forgotten what salt tasted like.
She had lived for twenty-eight years. Excluding the time she spent in the orphanage, she had lived alone for more than ten years, so she could be considered to have cooked for more than ten years. Although her cooking was not as good as that of restaurant chefs, it was definitely delicious. It was several times better than Shen Qingju's cooking.
It was not easy to hunt so much meat, so she could not let Shen Qingju ruin them.
